Inspiration for February

Restoration Hardware is showing the trend towards repurposing, and weathered wood and french styled chairs, and black iron light fixtures.  The perfect mix! (It almost looks like they copied us!)   


 Our neutral dining set, looks great with grey, beige and black, silver or pretty much any color.
 This magpie loves color and knows how to use it, she has inspired me for years and has a heart as big as Valentines day.  When we got this sofa in I couldn't resist!
This one's for you Tracy!

 Don't be afraid to use color, sometimes a little pop makes just the right statement.
 Flea Market Style is a yearly publication from another one my favorite inspiring ladies Ki Nausser Editor-in-Chief.  We now sell it at our shop!   We had our displays done before this arrived but couldn't believe how similar this room looks to the dining room above!
 A little weathered wood looks great in the mix of painted furniture by Carpenter Gothic.
A French blue dresser.   
These photo's were taken right before we opened for First Friday, so many of the items pictured here are long gone, however we do restock daily with items fresh out of the work shop.


CERTAIN FLAWS ARE NECESSARY FOR THE WHOLE.  IT WOULD SEEM STRANGE IF OLD FRIENDS LACKED CERTAIN QUIRKS.      -GOETHE
